Regularization of optimal control problems on stratified domains using additional controls
Résumé
In this paper, we investigate a Mayer optimal control problem governed by a dynamics defined regionally. We consider that the state space is stratified into a family of disjoint regions with nonsmooth interfaces, and that in each region, the dynamics is given by a smooth expression. First, it is shown that this problem is equivalent to a new optimal control problem, with additional controls and a (smooth) dynamics defined as a convex combination of the smooth dynamics, along with a mixed control-state constraint. Next, we introduce a family of auxiliary optimal control problems. In these problems, we first regularize the nonsmooth interfaces. In addition, we consider the convex combination of smooth dynamics (only) within a boundary layer. Furthermore, we add a penalization term to the cost function to account for the mixed control-state constraint. Our main result is that solutions to these (smooth) problems converge (up to a subsequence) to a solution of the original one. It is obtained thanks to a new hypothesis related to solutions to the auxiliary problems, which is weaker than the transverse crossing condition of the literature. This technique is implemented numerically on two examples involving non-transverse crossings of interfaces showing its efficiency.
